New Zealand Datsun Club

Kia ora people

Have been offered a 1968 411 Bluebird but it needs ball-joints and tie-rods replaced to get legal (as well as the rust sorting)

Does anyone have the ball-joints and tie-rods available or know a source for them here or overseas?

Cheers
Andrew

Bnt then repco would be my 1st stop

go straight to where bnt and repco will get them from which is george stocks

Thanks Guys, very helpful, will email Stocks!

If you cant get any - try these guys in chch if you can wait a week etc to have your ones rebuilt

PS - I work for BNT and if i couldn't find any i would exhaust all suppliers not just call stocks - sometimes having the actual part helps for matching up.

I had a quick look today for you and we have tie rods, both inner and outer listed - but no ball joints, will have another look tomorrow with the guys through all our 100 year old books lol

Hope this helps

No luck at repco, bnt or stocks

Thanks for the hbi engineering tip

found these for sale on ebay but unsure of the quality: http://www.ebay.com/itm/291421763209?_t ... EBIDX%3AIT" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Any thoughts?

They dont look like any other datsun ball joint ive seen (i havent worked on a 410/411 though - id buy them off ebay if i had too, just make sure they look the same as your own ones (bolt holes etc)

i think they are Uppers...will check out hbi engineering price

cheers

finally bought a NOS Lower Right Hand ball joint from ebay

$80 from Cyprus!

now need to go shopping for some outer tie rods
